The Long-Awaited Honda RS-X Finally Lands In Malaysia – RM8,688

Boon Siew Honda has officially launched the all-new Honda RS-X (known as Winner-X in Vietnam) for the Malaysian market.

Unlike the previous RS that adopts the essential moped looks, the RS-X focused on sports styling and an aerodynamically designed full cowl appearance with dual LED headlights.

The RS-X makes 15.8hp @ 9,000rpmm and 13.6Nm @ 7,000rpm from its Euro4 150cc liquid-cooled DOHC engine, the exact power figure you get from the previous generation RS.

Nonetheless, the most notable change is the introduction of a single-channel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), which allows riders to get a better grip of the bike during various conditions.

Other notable features include:

  • Honda seat opener
  • sealed chain drive
  • full digital speedometer
  • telescopic front fork
  • 17″ wheel
  • 4.5L tank

Meanwhile, you also get a well-designed exhaust that looks similar to the one you find on a bigger bike which Honda claimed also delivers an improved exhaust note.

According to Boon Siew Honda, the RS-X is available in three exciting colours, Trico Edition, Candy Caribbean Blue Sea, and Lemon Ice Yellow, priced at RM8,688.

A passionate football fan and anything two-wheels. He likes to commute on his 150cc scooter on a daily basis and occasionally takes a long trip with his 750cc machine just to "tapau" his favourite "roti canai". With a journalism background, he likes to write as much as he rides.
